things that was very clear last night is these candidates differ in the approach of how to make the economy grow and expand for the middle class. and he subscribed to the theory that greater tax cuts will subscribe for greater deficits. so i thought that was a clear contrast. i thought medicare was a clear contrast. we have two more rounds to go in the debate. >> on social security there were a lot more liberal watchers and supporters of the president. very upset with how he threw it out there saying we have to do something about it. that's not mainstream opinion in the democratic party. >> i believe he says we have to tweak it from time to time. indeed we do as population bubbles come and go. i think they're overreacting a little bit. let's be honest here. a lot of people in the democratic party base really wanted to see the president go out and poke him in the eye and tear off his face. >> i think they want to hear the number 47%. why didn't we hear that? >> i think that the 47% -- look, i'm not part of the debate strategy. but for the last several weeks everybody is asking how the heck c
